The long way would be to get the long name of target, filter it for a string, get the first name in quotes to the right of it etc etc. But I'm hoping there is something quicker. try the owner of that button! on mouseDown put the owner of the target end mouseDown Best Klaus -- Klaus Major http://www.major-k.de kl...@major.on-rev.com ___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
